Morning Run - Desert Reserve - They fenced me off my favorite access trail into the reserve. I was pretty ticked. All for a stupid tortoise I've never even seen and that's not even native to S. Utah.
Ran up to the end of the Paradise Rim Trail. When I got to my turn-around point a MT. Bike guy pulled up on his $4G bike and started talking to me about how he used to run but stopped because Mt. Biking is faster. Anyways, to make a long story short I started to head down the trail and he said, to let him go first so he wouldn't "run me down" on the trail. So, I let him go first and just held to his rear tire .5 miles down the trail then passed him. I must say he was pretty surprised that I was still with him and kicking his butt on the downhill.
Looking Forward to Speed this evening at the Dixie College Track.
Ran with Clyde and "The Girls" at the track this evening. Clyde and I decided to do 10x400M with a 200M recovery. I kept them all at 1:20 or below. We got a little faster at the end. The last lap was 1:09 for me and 1:04 for Clyde. I really liked the workout, I wouldn't mind doing Sasha's 20x400M on a non-race week. I think its good training for focusing on form and leg turn-over at higher speeds. |
